WHAT IT CONTAINED.

Enclosed was bent glass tube
filed with a jet black liquid to within
an inch and half Of the end. The
remainder OF the tube contained coarse
black powder. The tube was so ar
ranged that an opening Of the box
must have caused an explosion if the
machine were what it seemed to be,
and if in stamping the box at the post
Office the necessary connection had not
been severed by the blow. There are
circumstances which lead tothe belief
that the whole thing is 4 hoax.

Critical Situation.

New ORLEANS, La, November B.
At present over 1000 negro laborers
are on,a strike. White men working
on the sugar plantations, holding that
the demands were unjust, refused to
join them. As the negroes are in =
large majority everywhere throughout
the sugar district, and as they are de-
termined neither to work themselves
at present prices nor allow others to
work, further trouble is looked for.
The planters are determined to intro
duce new laborers, and a large num-
Der Of warrants for the eviction OF the
strikers have been served. Several
companies Of State militia are under
arms at the principal points through
out the district, and will go to the
assistance of the Sheriff's officers if
they are resisted when serving war
rants. Eyictions will begin to-day.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, November 3.-Briga-
dier-G General Bennett, Chief of Ord
nance, has submitted his annual re-
port to the Secretary of War. 1t
shows total expenditure OF the
bureau during the fiscal year Of ST.
597,652. During the year Al JOG rifles
and carbihes were manufactured at
the National Armory. General Ben
nett says: ''The question of the re-
duced calibre for small arms is now
under consideration by the depart
ment, and an effective and simple
magazine gun has become a necessity.
The department is seeking to reach
such result, and from the little that
can be learned Of the magazine sys-
TENS said to be adopted abroad, l am
persuaded that nothing is to be gained
at this juncture by haste" The re-
port says that owing to the failure of
Congress to pass the regular appropri-
alton bill, the department has effected
but little during the past year in the
direction of providing guns, carriages,
powders. etc., for coast defense.
RIFLE FoRGINGs.
Under the head of "Rifle Forgings"
the report says: Domestic manufac-
turers have at last triumphed over
their competitors and have obtained a
success in spite OF inadequate facili-
ties" On this subject General Ben
nett says: "It is believed to be Of
vital interest to the whole country that
such liberal appropriations be made
by Congress from year to year, until
our present utter destitution as to
modern guns be relieved. AS step
in this direction, have asked in my
annual estimate for an appropriation
of $1S0,OO0 for the procurement of
forgings for S-inch and 10-inch
breech-loading steel guns. This sum
should procure steel for about fifty
S-inch guns and about forty 10-inch
guns, and so allow the necessary time
to erect an additional plant. This ap-
preparation should be made available
until expended"
EXPLOSIVE GUNS.
The report says that the dynamite
torpedo gun should be fairly perfected
and it is recommended that a Pinch
gun be purchased for exhaustive trials
to determine its full capacity and fit
ness for coast defense. Favorable
mention is also made OF Stevens
dynamite shell. 1t is said that with
the exc eptian OF the 1000 3la-inch
breech loading field guns just issued
to the service there is IN store only
only one muzzle loadinggun OF limited
power, representing system twenty
five years old and now obsolete, while
there are no serviceable carriages.
An estimate OF $225, 900 is accordingly
submitted for the purchase OF sixty
completely equipped steel guns.

THE NEW LICENSE ACT.

Following is the full text of an amend
ment to the License Act, which was passed
at the last session of the Legislature, and

ing or delivering any license to Sheriff,

issued, the kind of business authorized to

building and placewhere the business is to be
carried on, the dates when said license be-
gins and expires, and the amount of money
to be paid therefor, and shall at the same
time make entries of the same upon the
stubs in the icense-book. Whenever any
license is returned, by the Sheriff, unsold,
the Auditor shall cancel and file the license,
and note the fact and date of such cancella-
tion upon the stubs thereof. No Board of
County Commissioners shall audit or allow
any claim in favor Of Sheriff until there
shall be filed with said Board the certified
statement of the Auditor that all settle
ments required by the list Section of the
Act of which this is amendatory, have
been made by said Sheriff. The amount
of all licenses issued to the Sheriff and not
accounted for shall be deducted before any
claim shall be allowed to Sheriff. No
county shall be liable to the Auditor, other
than for his official salary, for any fees or
for any services required of him under this
Act.
The construction placed upon this
amendment is that all persons requiring
licenses shall apply to the Sheriff for the
same, giving in the application descrip-
ftion Of the room or building in which the
business is to be carried on for which the
